Just try to be aware of how strongly you express it.Nobody said that. A bow is a two-handed weapon. It requires two hands to properly use. This is clearly stated in the rules. Using a weapon in your off-hand causes you to lose the benefits of your shield for the rest of the round. This is also clearly stated in the rules.It wasn't. Not once. An example was given. Not a parallel.No. The buckler description specifically states that bows do not suffer said penalty. Other weapons do suffer the penalty. The buckler description also spefically states that _in any case_, using a weapon in your off-hand causes you to lose the benefits of the shield for the rest of the round.Nobody said it was. The bow is being used in the off-hand. A bow requires two hands to use. You're attacking with a bow. The bow is in your off-hand...You're welcome to your interpretation, but I disagree. I think the rules are very clear on this. That's all.Again, a bow is a two-handed weapon. It requires to hands to use. You are using a weapon in your off-hand.Devil's advocate is a great thing. It insures that all sides have been covered. With that said, however, I don't think there are any more sides to cover.</blockquote>
